The challenge was entirely tied to timing. Lease-up had only recently begun, meaning the rent roll was thin, but the construction loan balloon date left no runway for a gradual stabilization process.

Conventional lenders, bound by trailing income and full-occupancy requirements, declined to proceed. They wanted to wait for "perfect numbers." We didn't.

Traditional Approach

Wait for 90% occupancy and 3 months of seasoning. Result: Borrower defaults on construction loan.

Our Approach

Underwrite stabilized market rents immediately. Result: Loan closes in 17 days.
